What are Core Modules?

Core Modules are a specialized type of Class A credit designed to help you stay current. Core Modules are focused on recently emerging information and evidence-based knowledge. Core Modules include a formal assessment, such as multiple-choice questions. Four Core Modules are required every four-year cycle in the CPC Program.  

Please note: Core Modules have been removed as a requirement in the new MAC Program.  


Core Module Criteria

Before you move into the MAC Program, you must complete the requirements of your current cycle which for most will require at least one Core Module from each of the four core domains. Core Modules also count as Class A credits. 

Core Modules address the four core domains: 

  • Airway Management
  • Applied Clinical Pharmacology
  • Human Physiology and Pathophysiology
  • Anesthesia Equipment, Technology, and Safety
